Moreover, make sure that the battery is fully charged and don’t use the camera’s buttons while the installation is in progress. This process isn’t intended to be destructive, but still, it’s best to save all your personal data and configurations before applying a different firmware. It is recommended that changing the camera’s firmware be performed when the new release resolves an issue that your device has been encountering, or adds a new feature (or enhances an existing one) that could prove useful for you. However, bear in mind that applying an earlier build might not always be possible. On the other hand, downgrading the camera’s firmware can recover its functionality in the unlikely event the currently installed version is faulty or the device’s performance dropped after an upgrade. Updating to a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your camera can improve the device’s overall performance and stability, resolve various issues, and add support for newly developed features or enhance existing ones. Copy ML files on the card and run Firmware Update. Make sure you are running Canon firmware 1.1.1. Guncheon has written a fine book that deserves a better physical production than it got.Magic Lantern is a free software add-on that runs from the SD/CF card and adds a host of new features to Canon EOS cameras that weren't included from the factory by Canon. Whoever thought this is how a camera book should be designed? I could delve into this book, but I find myself shying away from it. Likewise, symbols and icons used in the text are so tiny they often can't be deciphered without a magnifying glass. The section headings are even worse: they are pale red in color and so thin they're barely there. Guncheon's book was given a sans-serif font, like Helvetica or Arial, that's not only small in size but exceptionally thin. Even the small Canon owners manual uses a slightly larger font size for the body type. The typeface is tiny and an effort to read. If I could rate the design of the book separately I'd give it no stars at all. That is the advantage of well-written third-party camera books like this one, compared to the bare-boned owners manuals that come with the camera that only tell you "how."īut I had to ding the book as a whole one star because the author's good work is undermined by the physical design of the book that makes it hard and even painful to read. He gives helpful tips and explains the WHYs and REASONS for using the various settings on the camera depending on the situation that you're in.
His writing style is clear and understandable. His coverage of the 60D is thorough, detailed, and very well explained. I wish I could give this book five stars.
